The story about White records starts with Mr. White who was a former Edison employee. He took all the secrets of cylinder manufacturing and founded his own label "White Record" under the name of the General Phonograph Company. This adventure did last only for a short time - until Edison shut him down by lawsuits. Infact it bears a definite resemblance to the Edison Gold Moulded cylinders... This title origins from White Record #193, probably around 1907. Topics: cylinder record, white record, music hall Source: The Cylinder Archive [www.cylinder.de]

The Cylinder Archive [ www.cylinder.de ] release for July 2014: John J. Fisher [ca. 1866-1923] was a recording artist who started in the late 1890s and became a well issued artist after 1900 on Columbia cylinders. This Edison brown wax cylinder dates from March 1899, at a time when he just started one or two years ago.
